Loaded Ninja Foodi Potatoes-This made for such a great side dish last night; there is nothing like an easy air fryer-loaded stuffed baked potato recipe. I made mine in the Ninja Foodi, but this will work in any air fryer.
I love a great stuffed baked potato, but this method is faster but with the same great taste. Topped with crispy air fryer bacon, sour cream, green onions, and a drizzle of sour cream, they make for a great side dish to go with any meal or as a great air fryer appetizer.
Of course, as my kids will tell you, this also makes for a great meal. They finished them right after I took pictures, and they were in heaven. You can serve this with a garden salad, a quick appetizer, or a side dish. This will soon become one of your go-to dishes made in your air fryer.

Ingredients Needed For Loaded Ninja Foodi Potatoes
- Russet Potatoes
- Olive Oil
- Seasonings: Salt, Black, Pepper and Bacon Chipotle Seasoning, Garlic Powder, and Minced Onions.
- Toppings: Sour Cream, Bacon (Cooked), Sour Cream, Scallions, Green Onions, Chives, and any favorites.
How to Make Air Fry Loaded Ninja Foodi Potatoes
Add the diced potatoes, olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, minced onions, and Bacon Chipotle Seasoning in a large bowl, and mix well.
Pour the mixture into the Ninja Foodi Crisper bowl. If you use any other air fryer, toss the mixture into a baking bowl.
Cook Time/How Long it Takes:
Set the bowl into the air fryer for 15-20 minutes at 370 degrees F, air fryer setting (or air fryer crisping), use a mixing spoon, and mix several times during the cooking process.
The exact time will depend on how large your potatoes are and what air fryer you use. I check them frequently while cooking, so they do not get too brown.
As soon as they are fork-tender, which means stick a fork into the potato; if it is soft, they are done cooking (air frying)
When the potatoes are cooked, add the cheese on top and set the time for another 2 minutes. As soon as the cheese is melted, remove the pan from the air fryer.
Drizzle with the sour cream, and add your other toppings. Plate, serve, and enjoy!
Can You Use Aluminum Foil?
Yes, there is nothing wrong with using foil. Although you are using a bowl or the crisper basket to house these potatoes, you would not need it.
If you find that the potatoes are getting too brown, you may want to turn the temperature down.

I LOVE restaurant home fries and this was the closest thing to them!! The neatest thing is that you can add as much or as little of the ingredients as you want! I did this recipe in my Ninja Foodi (I’m not sure how they would turn out in a regular air fryer). 5 Star for sure for this recipe….and hubby really liked them also, so double 5 Star!! 🙂
